These instructions are only for Version 2.14 of Carbon Copy. The code for Version 2.12 is similar but in a different place.

If you are a Carbon Copy owner I'm sure you were surprised at the offensive message at startup. Certainly no one deserves such an insult each time they start their program. If you purchased the program for your company, they probably wondered what kind of nuts you bought the program from when they first see such a crazy message. On the copy I worked with, the following instructions eliminated this message.You should take the message out of both the CCHELP.EXE and the CC.EXE programs.To do so you first have to disable the Checksum, then move the pointer to the opening message farther down in the message so just the last part "Please Wait...Configuring Communications Device" is printed to screen. This is very simple since it means changing only four instructions, two in CCHELP.EXE and two in CC.EXE.

Be sure to work with a copy of the program not the original!!To make things easier, copy debug.com onto the copy you will be working with.The numbers such as 0B5C:1417 are memory addresses where the instructions arelocated. These addresses may not be the same as your debug session.
